repeated file content match

[Ben Soot]

Hello,

What is the best way to get alerts of repeated file content matches?

I have 2 rules one for the same file so i can then distinguish in mmonit the service to send alerts 
to different mail addresses.

Somehow the alerts for the repeated rule are not triggered... Anybody done sth 
like this?
also i never got the service group

Im using monit 5.4 and mmonit 3.1.2


thanks Ben
